State University (APSU) Recreation Department has confirmed a “Line Dance
Fitness” class to their recreation program starting August 27, 2014. This class
will be at the Foy Recreation Center on Wednesday afternoons from 5-6 pm. This
class is designed to be an ongoing fast moving class to provide a great cardio
workout. This class is for students, faculty and members of the Foy Center.
Starting September 22, 2014, APSU will
be offering a Beginner Line Dance Course/Class. This will be a 6 week course
that is designed to fit with the University setting. The course/class is not
just to teach a person line dances but to teach an absolutely Beginner how to
dance. Of course, it is always great to review those basics so everyone is
welcome to participate. Class will be on Monday nights 6:30 to 8 pm and this
class is open to the public.
Students will learn the basic dance
steps used in all dances. Proper Execution of steps, understanding of weight
changes, how to recognize different rhythms, timing of steps and how to count
music. Each week class will focus on a
particular dance rhythm.
The 6 week course/class will focus on
Cha Cha Cha, Waltz, Polka, West Coast and Nightclub 2step rhythms. Each week the class will focus on the
particular characteristics that make that week’s rhythm unique. The line
dance(s) taught each week will focus on the particular steps that demonstrate
the week’s rhythm.
The University is hopeful that the
Beginner class will be a success and if so will be looking to expand the
program to an Intermediate Class as well as an ongoing Beginner Class. Don’t
miss out on some great dances set up for this class. Register now by going to http://signmeup.aspu.edu
The 6 week Course/Class and the “Line
Dance Fitness” class will be instructed by Larry B. Larry has been Line Dancing
for over 15 years and an Instructor for 10 years. For More information on the
above course, Larry B and other great dance opportunities in the Middle

The benefits of dancing:
Strengthening bones and muscles, tone your entire body, improve posture and
balance, reduce stress and tension, boost memory, improve flexibility, weight
loss, increase energy and increase mental capacity. Dance class is also a great
social event to meet new friends.
